Meeting date: Tuesday, May 14, 2002

Carers Week

The Convener:

The next item concerns an invitation from the Social Justice Committee, which is to hold an event to raise the profile of carers week. We have received a letter from Johann Lamont, which asks whether the Equal Opportunities Committee would like to be involved in the event and, if so, which member would represent the committee. I assume that the committee wants to be involved in the event?

I would like to be involved, as the subject has been a particular interest of mine for some time.

If other members are interested in the event, they can contact the clerks, as I am sure that more than one committee member can attend.

I am interested in attending.

I note Cathy Peattie's interest.

Are there financial implications? Does the Social Justice Committee expect the Equal Opportunities Committee to make a contribution?

No. It is a free event.

Are we agreed that Kay Ullrich and Cathy Peattie attend? If other members are interested, they should contact the clerks.

Members indicated agreement.

Meeting continued in private until 11:43.
